<h2>Spirit Change Log</h2>
<h2>1.8.11</h2>
<ul>
  <li>Fixed <tt>position_iterator</tt> forming reference to local when the

      <a href="https://github.com/boostorg/spirit/pull/336">GH#336</a>.

  <li>Minor code improvements.
      <a href="https://github.com/boostorg/spirit/pull/367">GH#367</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>1.8.8</h2>
<ul>
  <li>Fixed <tt>remove_reference</tt> usage without a namespace in Phoenix.
      <a href="https://github.com/boostorg/spirit/pull/274">GH#274</a></li>

      <a href="https://github.com/boostorg/spirit/pull/323">GH#323</a>
      <a href="https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/12639">#12639</a></li>

      <a href="https://github.com/boostorg/spirit/pull/345">GH#345</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>1.8.7</h2>
<ul>
  <li>Integrated the Spirit V1.8.x code base with Spirit V2. Spirit V1.8.x is
      now called 
    <strong>Spirit Classic.</strong> Even if the directory
      structure has changed (the 
    <strong>Spirit Classic</strong> headers are now moved to the 
      '$BOOST_ROOT/boost/spirit/home/classic' directory), we created forwarding 
      headers allowing to compile existing applications without any change. 
      These forwarding headers are deprecated, though, which will result in 
      corresponding warnings generated for each of the headers. The forwarding 
      headers are expected to be removed in the future.
    <br />
      The recommended way of using Spirit Classic is now to include header
      files from the directory '$BOOST_ROOT/boost/spirit/include'. All files of 
      <strong>Spirit Classic</strong>
      have now a 'classic_' prefixed to their name. For example the include
    <br/>
      <br><code>&nbsp;&nbsp;#include &lt;boost/spirit/core/core.hpp&gt;</code><br/> 
    <br/>
    now should be written as: 
    <br/>
       <br/><code>&nbsp;&nbsp;#include &lt;boost/spirit/include/classic_core.hpp&gt;</code><br/>
    <br/>      
    To avoid namespace conflicts with the new Spirit V2 library we moved <strong>Spirit
      Classic</strong> into the <tt>namespace boost::spirit::classic</tt>. This change will be automatically&nbsp;deactivated whenever the deprecated include files are
    being used. This ensures full backwards compatibility for existing applications.
    <br />
    For more details about this change please consult the documentation.</li>
</ul>
<h2>1.8.6</h2>
<ul>
  <li>Fixed a integer overflow bug preventing to fail parsing on certain large integers. This bug was reported and fixed by Michael Andersen Nex�</li>
</ul>
<h2>1.8.5</h2>
<ul>
  <li>For performance reasons, leaf_node_d/token_node_d have been changed to implicit lexems that create leaf nodes in one shot. The old token_node_d is still available and called reduced_node_d, now.</li>
  <li>It's now possible to phoenix::bind (version 1) symbols::add.</li>
</ul>
<h2>1.8.4</h2>
<ul>
  <li>Fixed no_actions bug where no_action is applied recursively.</li>
  <li>Fixed the regex_p parser for Boost &gt;= V1.33.0 </li>
  <li>Implemented a workaround for namespace issues VC++ has with Spirit's file_iterators</li>
  <li>Fixed bug in tree match policies that prevented using gen_pt/ast_node_d,
    <a href="http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.parsers.spirit.general/9013">reported
    by Jascha Wetzel</a>.</li>
  <li>Made position_iterator usable with wchar_t based strings. </li>
</ul>
<h2>1.8.3</h2>
<ul>
  <li>Config correction for Sun C++ by 


 Steve Clamage (see <a href="https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107586&aid=1220782&group_id=7586">this link</a>). </li>
  <li>Fixed multi_pass_iterator for 64 platforms, where sizeof(int) != sizeof(ptr_type).Fixed bug that prevents the use of closures with grammars with multiple entry points, <a href="http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.parsers.spirit.general/8868">reported by David Pierre</a></li>
  <li>Fixed bug that prevented embedding of grammars with multiple entry points, <a href="http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.parsers.spirit.general/8860">reported by David Pierre</a></li>
  <li>Added '\0' to the set of valid escaped characters for escape_ch_p.</li>
  <li>Fixed a switch_p bug when used with a phoenix::actor as the conditional expression.</li>
  <li>__LINE__ macro now gets expanded in BOOST_SPIRIT_ASSERT_EXCEPTION</li>
  <li>Fixed a bug in the intersection parser <a href="http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.parsers.spirit.general/8544">reported by Yusaku Sugai</a></li>
  <li>The symbol parser uses the null character internally. Checks were added so that:
  <ul>
    <li>tst.add asserts if string contains the null character</li>
    <li>tst.find doesn't match null characters in the input</li>
  </ul></li>
  <li>Fixed match_attr_traits.ipp to allow non-POD to pass through. The previous version taking in the ellipsis &quot;...&quot; does not allow PODs to pass through.</li>
  <li>Allow evaluation to int as condition to if_p parser.</li>
  <li>Applied  performance improvement changes to the PT/AST code as suggested by Stefan Slapeta. </li>
  <li>Fixed several problems with AST tree node directives (inner_node_d[], discard_first_node[], discard_last_node[] and infix_node_d[]). </li>
</ul>
<h2>1.8.2</h2>
<p>Maintenance release (almost the same as 1.8.1 plus a few fixes here and there)</p>
<ul>
  <li>Added specializations to str_p and ch_p to allow str_p('c') and ch_p("c") thus fixing some non-bugs</li>
  <li>Fixed bug where a match&lt;T&gt; is a variant.</li>
  <li>added Jamfile/Jamrules from CVS to spirit-1.8.1/</li>
  <li>added boost-build.jam from boost to spirit-1.8.1/</li>

<ul>
  <li>wchar_t friendly implementation of graph_p</li>
  <li>Modified escape_char_parser::parse() to use a static parser instead of a rule. This will make it more friendly to use in trees. It should also be a little more efficient.</li>

    adaptor applied to an std::istream_iterator resulted in a failure to compile 
    under msvc 7.0. </li>
  <li> Fixed: There is a bug in the &quot;range_run&lt;CharT&gt;::set (range&lt;CharT&gt; 
    const&amp; r)&quot; function in the &quot;boost\spirit\utility\impl\chset\range_run.ipp&quot;.
